'SImple' 2 class Java calculator doesn't accept inputs or do calculations
- by Tony O'Keeffe
Hi, I'm trying to get a two class java calculator working (new to java) to work but so far i'm having no success. the two classes are outlined below, calcFrame is for the interface and calEngine should do the actual calculations but i can't get them to talk to one another. i'd really appreciate any assistance on same. Thanks.
CalcFrame Code -
